I have a Python program that reads in an Excel sheet and turns it into Word based documentation. I copy this and paste it into a Confluence page and all the nice table formatting is lost. Specifically, all of the columns are the same width in Confluence; the width of the source is lost. This worked perfectly in Mindtouch, our previous Wiki. There are over 100 tables in the output and I had to spend nearly half an hour manually re-adjusting the tables so they looked the same.
I also tried to save the word file as HTML. The HTML looked great. The copy-pasted Confluence page not so much. Can anyone shed some light on how this might be done. As far as I can tell I cannot paste raw HTML into the page. Again Mindtouch, which is 10 years older than Confluence allowed me to edit the HTML with a single push button then copy-paste raw HTML in there.
Welcome to community! On Cloud I don't think it allows raw HTML to be added directly. If it was on markdown most probably it can render it but HTML, it will most definitely strip it out.
Thanks for the answer. To be clear, I don't want to have to use html, I would rather that the word importer preserves all of the formatting in the source. Since I can do it manually it is clearly possible to create a Confluence page that looks the way I want, its just that I have not found a way yet of doing it automatically.

Hi, I already gave a link to the docs in my previous response.

I have taken a look at the API but its not immediately obvious how to write a table into a page and how to encode the page widths. This is a week's work at least to get up to speed with so does not solve my problem in the short term.

Hi Community! We're thrilled to share that Team Calendars for Confluence is now a built-in feature for Confluence Data Center releases 7.11 and beyond. A long time favorite, Team Cale...
